How many of those who were laid off were Loan Officers? Bank Executives? LO's were laid off much more as the Bank Executives try to save there jobs and eliminate knowledgeable LO's. Who have been convicted more of fraudelent crimes? LO's ... even though the executives set policy, fraud guidlines, and knew of the fraud they were promoting to support their HUGE bonuses!! Finally, who gets paid 100% commission, Loan Officers or Bank Executives? Of course, Loan Officers get paid 100% Commission and Bank Executives get paid ridiculous bonuses and salaries!! This is why I am actively working to get out of this horrendous business!! LO's get screwed everyday!!

The large companies operate on easy come easy go on hiring and firing. They have cast out hiring loyal staff and knowledge for the 'bottom line' Which today bottom line for executive's pay is extremely high, if they don't make a million then they are hurting. Isn't greed one of the seven deadly sins?
